Playing Style

Pickford is an England goalkeeper whose international profile is built on tournament penalty shoot-outs and long scoreless runs. He saved from Carlos Bacca in the 2018 World Cup shoot-out against Colombia, saved two Italy penalties in the Euro 2020 final at Wembley, and holds the all-time England record of 721 consecutive scoreless minutes set during Euro 2020.

He brings 82 senior caps and two prior World Cup campaigns into the squad as of 1 April 2026, named alongside Dean Henderson and James Trafford in Tuchel's goalkeeper group.

World Cup History

At Russia 2018 Pickford started every England game at his maiden World Cup and helped England reach their first semi-final since 1990. He saved from Carlos Bacca in the round-of-16 penalty shoot-out against Colombia to claim England's first World Cup shoot-out victory, before England finished fourth after a 2-0 defeat to Belgium in the third-place play-off.

At Qatar 2022 he started every minute and kept three clean sheets (USA 0-0, Wales 3-0, Senegal 3-0 in the last 16) before England lost 2-1 to France in the quarter-finals — the match in which he won his 50th England cap. The 2026 World Cup is his third senior World Cup.
